Sebbirozi
The Sebbirozi was a tribe mentioned by the 9th-century Bavarian Geographer . It states that the Sebbirozi inhabit 90 settlements (Sebbirozi habent civitates XC).
- Russian historian Nikolay Karamzin (1766–1826) identified them as the Severians.
- German historian Johann Caspar Zeuss (1806–1856) believed them to have inhabited the hinterland of the Western Balkans.
- Polish historian Joachim Lelewel (1786–1861) put them in Semberija.
- Slovak scholar Pavel Jozef Šafařík (1795–1861) put them in Russia.
- Polish historian Henryk Łowmiański (1898–1984) connected the ethnonym to the Severians.
- Polish historian Krzysztof Tomasz Witczak in 2013 noted that the Sebbirozi were one of the five Turkic tribes from the source, precisely the Sabirs. Already in 1958 Łowmiański considered etymological and geographical relation between the Sebbirozi, Attorozi, Uuillerozi, Zabrozi, Chozirozi due to unusual non-Slavic, yet Turkic suffix -rozi. The Attorozi themselves are described as populus ferocissimus.
